I have managed to remove the wire which connects the house battery to engine battery. All I can say is that after the panels are off it is not that bad a job to get out. Getting it back in is yet to be seen. The way the wire was in my coach makes me want to say that if you think you might have a deteriorating wire you should really check it. I thought mine was ok after it was into the wall but the insulation was cracked and falling off in some places even where the sun/heat had never gotten to it. I really wonder how it had not started a fire. After I got it out I measured the length and came up with about 26 feet plus a little. I know that NAPA has 00 wire in 25 foot lengths but I am afraid I will be short. I guess I will find some bulk wire. I am going to try to put up pictures of all this on the GMC site. Wish me luck!
